Congress undertakes TO govern the Dis
tr;ct of Columbia on the municipal plan
common to this country. OF course that
is the board plan, and, of course, there
are the usual scandals inseparable from
an arrangement where responsibility can
be divided into homeopathic quantities.
The latest shame appears in connection
with the board of commissioners OF the
district. They have been found indulg-
ing in $500 horses, Sl00 harnesses and
other luxuries not apparently requisite to
the discharge OF their duties, But the
height OF oriental luxury was reached
when they sent IN a bill 10 the U. S.
treasury for Sl5l75 for decorated china
on account of the Washington wurkhouse.
This fancy ware was not for use by the
prisoners, but was intended to ornament
the table Of the supetinitn dent when the
commissioners feHsted at the public ex-
pense. The treasury officials refused to
pay for the china, bu, the incident stands
another proof of the folly o putting men
into places of temptation without pre-
serving the means OF detecting t he right
personality to punish in case the tempta-
ton prove. too strong Press.

The George People and the Socialists
10 Clinch.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-Henry George, in
the Standard, says that the platform TO be
adopted at the coming state convention Of
the united labor party should firmly and
clearly define the position of the party
with relation to socialism. The efforts of
the socialists TO folst their peculiar ideas
upon the party have become so notorious
that any attempt to eyade The issue would
give the enemies OF the party pretext to
make the charges that they do. lie thinks
that the issue should be settled once for
all, and is not, therefore, in favor oil ex-
cluding sociAlIstic delegates from the con-
venlion. He would like 10 see that ele-
ment represented by its ablest exponents,
TOO, and have the question decided on its
merits. George thinks that the socialists
can accomplish more good with the united
labor party Than they can by working sep
arately, but they must abandon some of
their foreign ideas, or they can have no
place in The movement.
That aint the way they do business in
this neck of the woods. They invite no
discussion OF anything, bnt simply put
their hord OF pimps to work to boycott and
cut of all discussion OF any question that
would throw light upon subject that the
mass OF the people want 10 know aud ought
10 know TO correct existing evils.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. Sin the Jour
nal of United Ltber to be Issued on Sat
urdny, Powderly, speaking of the indis-
criminate immigration, will say that it
is one of the knottiest problems for our
statesmen to solve. The working peo-
pie already here are elbowing each 9th
er in an uncomfortable manner. II the
foreign contract labor evils could be
stopped and only those who intend TO
assume the responsibilities of citizen
ship admitted the outlook would not be
s dark, for the rawest material may be
refined in time. Powderly. in the same
paper, makes defense of the working
classes who have been styled the dan.
gerous classes" In the time of trouble
of whatsoever character, hone makes
such sacrifice of personal interests rs
this dangerous class" They are dan
gerous because they seek legislative
justice, and because they ask for honest
men to administer the affairs of the peo-
pie, The defaulters, thieves and con-
spirators of church, state and society are
the really dangerous classes" "Indus-
Try he concludes, never yet was found
the enemy of nations prosperity.
That enemy is idle wealth, vicious in its
tastes, remorseless in its selfish ambi-
tions, heartless in its oppressive aims"
Is there any man who knows enough
to know anything worth knowing about
our system of Government, but who is
ready to tell you that Mr.. Powderly has
"treed' the dangerous classes" to this
country and is now barking up the
right tree.
